Loving God, we cannot comprehend the mystery of your self-giving love. We embrace it in humble gratitude. In our feeble way, we yearn to love you and love our neighbour as ourselves.

Lament and Longing – Do You Feel the Grief?
Speaker: Hor Guo Yi
Scripture: Matthew 23

Introduction

An extended Kingdom Lament

1. Hypokrites – noun, is a term used to describe stage actors. Pretending, acting a part.

 

2. What tone do you hear in Jesus’ words?

 

3. Ouai – the anti-makarios

 

4. Woes summarised in the first 12 verses, where we learn two key aspects for faithful living in Jesus’ lament.

 

A. KEEPING TRUE TO THE KINGDOM WAY

1. Inconsistency in evaluating standards of holiness dishonours God (don’t do what they do)

 

2. False piety offends God. Religion can emphasise holiness in the details while missing more critical matters of holiness.

 

B. KEEPING TRUST WITH THE KINGDOM’S KING

1. Exalting self above Christ dishonors God (rabbi, father, teacher)

 

Conclusion

An earnest Kingdom Longing

1. Jesus weeps over our waywardness.

2. Jesus longs for our return. He goes to the cross for it.

Lament and Longing – Do You Feel the Grief?
Speaker: Rev Kirk Tan
Scripture: Matthew 23

Introduction

3 reasons to skip Matthew 23 …

Yet Matthew 23 applies to all of us!

Heed the three calls in Matthew 23:

A. SHUN HYPOCRISY! (vv. 2–7)

 

B. WALK HUMBLY! (vv. 8–12)

 

C. FEEL GOD’S HEART (vv. 37-39)

 

Conclusion

Would we repent and return?
